Labor Theory

Famous quotes containing the words labor and/or theory:

“But genius is the power to labor better and more availably. Deserve thy genius: exalt it.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“It is not enough for theory to describe and analyse, it must itself be an event in the universe it describes. In order to do this theory must partake of and become the acceleration of this logic. It must tear itself from all referents and take pride only in the future. Theory must operate on time at the cost of a deliberate distortion of present reality.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
